A big year for the V8s

Season 2015 has been a success for the V8 Supercars, Australia’s premier motorsport category, and Coates Hire has been an integral part of that success.

As the cars, crews and teams criss-crossed the country for the 14 Australian V8 Supercars races Coates Hire was there to provide the infrastructure and equipment needed to run the events.

Coates Hire is Official Hire Equipment Sponsor of the V8 Supercars Championship and provides all of the essential equipment and services needed to make the events a success. The company is also a long-term sponsor of the championship, and this year expanded its involvement with naming rights to the high-profile championship decider, the Coates Hire Sydney 500.

Coates Hire has a long history with the sport, with the relationship with V8 Supercars beginning way back in 2002.

Coates Hire is also the naming rights sponsor for the Coates Hire Ipswich SuperSprint and also the Coates Hire Leaderboard, featured in both the V8 TV broadcast and online at v8supercars.com.au.

Rising star and Coates Hire Ambassador Nick Percat is a confirmed entry for Lucas Dumbrell Motorsport in the 2016 V8 Supercars championship. Team owner Lucas Dumbrell said he was excited about the results Percat, the 2011 Bathurst winner with Garth Tander in a HRT Commodore, could deliver to the team in 2016.
